It’s been sitting on the shelf.
Maybe in a quiet room, or tucked in a closet.
A small container holding something that once felt too big to handle.

Maybe you weren’t ready to decide yet.
Maybe the idea of letting go felt too final.
Maybe no option ever felt quite right.

You’re not alone.
Thousands of families are holding onto ashes because the traditional options—cemeteries, columbariums, urns on the mantle—don’t feel like them.

And honestly? That’s okay.

But here’s the truth: ashes were never meant to be stored away.
Not really.
They were meant to be released. Returned.
Scattered into a place that tells a story.

Somewhere beautiful.

The right place might be closer than you think.

Maybe it’s the lake they grew up beside.
Maybe it’s a mountain they never got to climb, but always talked about.
Maybe it’s a stretch of forest trail, a bluff overlooking the ocean, or a quiet field where the wind speaks the language of peace.

At Forever Places, we help families scatter their loved ones’ ashes in natural locations across Canada—places that hold meaning, memory, and a sense of belonging.

You don’t have to hike the mountain.
You don’t have to plan the trip.
You don’t even have to be there.

You just choose the place.
We do the rest.

Here’s how it works:

Once you’ve selected the location that feels right, we send you a prepaid, pre-addressed shipping kit that meets Canada Post’s requirements for mailing ashes.
Inside are simple, clear instructions—nothing complicated, nothing overwhelming. Just a quiet, secure way to start a meaningful journey.

Once we receive the ashes, we prepare for the scattering.
We schedule the date based on weather and seasonal access, and we travel to the site—whether that means hiking, boating, or simply walking a quiet trail.

We carry out the scattering with full respect and care.
There are no witnesses, no speeches, no crowds—just nature, stillness, and love.

Afterward, we send you a digital photo of the location, GPS coordinates, and an optional keepsake, like a bit of soil or water from the place where they now rest.

This isn’t a transaction. It’s a return.

Back to the earth.
Back to the view.
Back to the place that matches who they were.

Because the people we love are bigger than boxes.
They’re made of all the places they’ve been, all the places they dreamed of, all the moments that made them feel most alive.

We believe they should rest in a place like that.

Not tucked away.
Not forgotten.
But placed, purposefully, where the air is still and the view goes on forever.

If you’re holding onto ashes and waiting for the “right” time—this could be it.

It doesn’t have to be complicated.
It doesn’t have to be loud.
It just has to be real.

Let us help you choose a place that feels like them.

Because ashes don’t belong in a box.
They belong somewhere beautiful.
